He concluded that only twisted desires and obsession would grow stronger.
‘Then it’s better not to let her know that I was here.’
Then, the current Ellen.
He sighed first.
“…….”
He might even receive a look of contempt instead of admiration.
Philip remembered Ellen’s reaction when he talked about elephant hunting.
He didn’t want to see that reaction twice.
His eyes naturally went to the picnic basket.
The Ellen Philip knew would throw away rotten food, not share it with others.
If she waited for the food to rot and then forced others to eat it, it would describe Ellen’s character well.
But she had carefully given the food. That was proof.
‘The changed Ellen is certain. She takes care of elephants, so she wouldn’t ignore people.’
Convinced, Philip finally made a decision after a long thought.
It was a pity to erase his traces, but he couldn’t help it.
“None of you here must say that I came. If you do not heed my words.”
He hesitated for a moment again.
How could he enforce this?
Then Polter quickly nodded his head.
“I understand, my lord. I will keep everyone’s mouth shut.”
At Polter’s promise, everyone bowed to Philip.
“We know nothing.”
“Good. I will send appropriate transportation as I go.”
Philip, relieved at the obedient reply and turning, suddenly stopped.
“By the way, is there anything left that would please Ellen?”
[This is the time separator]After Count Philip Morris left, the cave was empty.
Everyone was in a daze. It felt like they had been hit by a storm all night.
Especially Polter, even more so.
Count Morris was said to be madly in love with his wife, and it really seemed that way.
Even Count Morris himself seemed to know how obsessed he was.
‘So that’s why he’s imposing a gag order.’
Although the Count had pursued his wife with a loss of reason, he appeared to have come to his senses belatedly.
Fearing being discovered by his wife, he was anxious. Repeating the atmosphere of the concerned Count in his mind, Polter stuck out his tongue.
‘At that rate, the real power in this territory is Lady Ellen.’
Polter once again determined to pledge allegiance to Ellen.
Then, one of the women cautiously asked.
“Uh, um…… Captain, can we eat the bread now?”
“Hmm? Uh…….”
Initially answering, Polter reopened the picnic basket.
He first took care of the Countess’s share, then distributed the remaining food little by little to his companions.
“Now, everyone has heard, right? The Count’s arrival is an absolute secret.”
Polter emphasized several times that a settlement would arise if they did as the Count instructed. And that they would also be loyal to the Countess.
“If the lady orders us to die, we must at least pretend to do so to survive.”
At Polter’s urging, the companions nodded their heads with grave expressions.
“Now, let’s eat.”
Having finished his restraints and instructions, Polter now bit into his share of bread.
That was the moment.
All the arrogant memories from the time he fled under the false charge of treason to now tormented Polter’s mind.
“Gasp!”
Tears gushed from his eyes.
They were truly exhausting and sorrowful days.
But he couldn’t cry again, so Polter slowly swallowed the tearsoaked bread.
Maybe the companions had the same thoughts as Polter.
From here and there, the sound of sobbing flowed out.
Male lead is a Love-Obsessed Merman
When he discovers she has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs…
One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.
Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
